April Meetup: MongoDB vs neo4j, App Engine Endpoints, Firebase

After two months of Android Study Group we were putting more focus on the cloud offerings of Google and related technology.

Marc talked about the differences between MongoDB and neo4j, two NoSQL offerings which can easily be used in a Java or JVM-based application, but also many other languages.

Helmuth made a short presentation on App Engine Endpoints using Python. And the last talk was about Firebase, a JSON-based NoSQL cloud storage with offline capabilities, many client libraries, and realtime sync.
